[PATCH v7] serial/arc-uart: Add new driver

[Vineet.Gupta1]

From: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi,

Here's the updated revision with all of Felipe' review comments.
-Rebased off tty-next tip.
-Build tested for x86, both as builtin and as module
-Same driver (as module) verified on ARCAngel4 Board.

Please consider applying.

Thanks,
Vineet

v7:
* Reinstated (request|release)_port() as they are called w/o NULL check by core
* verify_port() now does some basic checking
* Use container_of() for converting embedded uart_port to arc_uart_port
* dev_* instead of pr_*

v6:
* syntactical changes per comments by Felipe
* Empty (request|release)_port removed

v5:
* Driver now builds as module; default !y
* Fixed some build wreckage due to SERIAL_ARC && !SERIAL_ARC_CONSOLE
* Fixed a sparse warning due to forced cast, hence reg offsets now in bytes

v4:
* UAPI disintegration fallout for serial_core.h
* rebased off of tty-next

v3:
* Removed empty arc_serial_set_ldisc()
* More set_termios fixes - CSIZE forced to CS8 (for 8N1)
* global @running_on_iss replaced with platform data, saved in device
  specific port structure.

v2:
* ttyARC used as device name
* Dynamic assignment of major/minor numbers.
* Ref counting tty in rx routine to prevent it from disappearing in
  case of a hangup
* set_termios fixes:
  - hardware flow control/parity are marked as unsupported
  - baud written back to termios
* cosmetics such as commenting the need for @running_on_iss, empty lines
  etc
